Why is it so difficult for people to fall asleep without a duvet or blanket over them, no matter the temperature

Uhhh, I dont need any blankets or sheets to fall asleep. I just lay down somewhere and sleep
I think it’s a protection thing. If you’re underneath a cover, you’re sort of “protected” from outside danger.
Pressure helps calm down most everything and everyone. Cows are put in a compression machine to calm them down for milking sometimes. Blankets of any weight give compression and makes it feel like a hug.
There’s a monster that will attack you if your arms or legs are exposed. It’s true I’ve seen it.
I believe there is a strong behavioral pairing/conditioning as well. We associate bedding with relaxation, security, and sleep early in life.
